I LOVE NYC at Xmas and would love to take my child and a friend to this fun show.
I myself have always dreamed of seeing this show! I think it would be perfectly magical to see it with my elementary school-aged cousins.
I love Christmas in NYC & would like to take my kids.
I have such fond memories of going as a kid and would love to share it with my little ones. Thanks – what a generous offering!
I’ve never gone, but my husband went with his late mother and remembers that moment dearly. I would love to treat him and my two young sons.
I would love to win these because for the first time ever I am going to come see the Macys Day parade with my kids and husband and they would love to see this show and I would love them to see it. My daughter loves dancing and she would be amazed. I dont have enough money to purchase the tickets because I dont work and we are trying to fix our home do to water damage, not to have a sob story but I just would love my children to be happy because when they have a smile on their faces, we do!
Thank you
Would love to bring my dance-crazy daughters to this!
Would love to be able to take my younger brother and sister ( who were adopted through the foster care system) to this event. They would love to see NYC and the Rockettes. My little sister loves to dance…. and little brother would love the sights and sounds surrounding the show.
We just moved to NJ a year ago and I would love to take my kids to this iconic NYC Christmas show!
There is nothing as wonderful as your child’s face lighting up as they watch the stage. And I look forward to having Ayla show me the dance moves when we get home
I would love to bring my boys to this show. This is probably the last year in which my oldest still “believes” in Christmas magic! What’s more magical than the Christmas show?!
would love to take my kids to see this show!
I grew up in NYC and my dance instructor was actually a Rockette. I would love to bring my son to the show and let him know what I experienced as a child.
My kids have neve been! Would love to take them!

The reasons I would love to win these tickets is simple! First of all, we can’t afford them on our own. And second, I would love to surprise my son and my mother with them. As a child, I was surrounded by a big family for the holidays. I always feel a little bad for my son for not having a big family with grandparents, cousins and aunts and uncles around to celebrate. It’s just my husband, my son,my Mom and I for Christmas every year. See, we are perfect for the 4 pack!
I have such memories of the Christmas Show at Radio City. My parents took us out of school each year on my mother’s birthday(December 14). When we went they used to also show a movie. I saw Bambi one year. Now I have two daughters who would LOVE to go. My aunt was a rockette back in the fifties back when the Rockettes toured the country. My favorite part of the show is the live nativity with the real animals !
We haven’t been as a family and this is one of my all time fav shows as a kid.
I went with my husband before we had kids. Now we have two and I would really like to share the wonderful experience with them.
I really want to win this!! Growing up, my family never had the money for this, and I really really wanted to go!! And now I have two children who are the perfect age for experiencing its magic.
I would love to win because my mom and I saw a broadway show a few years back, and we would now love to take my 2 kids because they are a great age to enjoy NYC and the Rockette’s. Thanks!

My oldest daughter wants to be a Rockette and it would be so wonderful to go asa family andsee the show we hope to see her perform in one day. This is our first Christmas without our traditional family celebrations with our parents due to illnesses, it would be a great new family tradition to begin with new memories.
I remember going a couple of times as a child. My daughter, who has been a tapper for 3 years, has never seen it and would really enjoy it. We’re also wondering whether the outfit designed for the Rockettes on this season of Project Runway will make an appearance.
I had a teacher who was a Rockette before switching to a career as an educator. An interest in this show has stuck with me ever since. For a time I worked as a live in nanny and had such fun taking my kids to this seasonal kick off. Now I’d like to share the fun with my own children!
I’ve never seen the Rockettes! I never have
I would love nothing more than to take my daughters to see the show and see the looks on their faces. The holiday season is so special to me, as it is a time to be thankful for all that we have been blessed with in our lives. A time to remind us what is truly important; family.
I would LOVE to go because Christmas is my “thing”. Everyone knows it is my favorite time of the year and I love anything involved with the holiday season. What would make this show extra special is that I have family in NYC that we have not seen in years and this would be a wonderful and special thing for us to all do together! Thank you for the giveaway!

Would love to be able to see the show with my grandchildren so they will have life long memories about this time.
I saw the Rockettes as a kid and would love to take my daughter.
Two reasons (other than “I just wanna!”):
1) My eight-year-old loves dance and would adore this.
2) While I was at Kessler lsat year following a car accident, my occupational therapist talked about her sister being a Rockette … so it’s fated. Fated, I tell you!
NYC is a great city, but during the holiday season it simply becomes magical. Nothing beats the city during the holidays, and my husband and I would love to take our 4-year old daughters to see the Rockettes; truly a memorable experience.
Every year I want I take my kids to see this iconic show, and every year the ticket prices stop me. Maybe this is finally our year…
my daughter dreams of being a Rockette. would love to take her.
This year would mark our first time! Fingers crossed
I have always wanted to take the kids – just never had the chance – would love to be able to take them this year!
I go every year with my husband and son. We would love to bring my daughter this year now that she is older.
My kids are at that age where MOM just isn’t cool enough to hang out with….If I WON these tickets this would be the perfect opportunity to have a FAMILY FUN DAY ….going to this show would give me 1 more day to remember what is was like on Christmas morning hearing little feet running towards the Christmas Tree. Their faces will light up, I know mine sure will…..Thank you very much!
I’m sure there are plenty of people more deserving than me but I just want to have something fun to do with the family. Plus there’s a Rockette in my family’s bloodline.
We would love to take our boys to this show and experience NYC at Christmas time!
Neither my wife or myself have ever been and would love to bring our boys to see this “Spectacular” show!!
Sounds like a wonderful time out with the family.
I haven’t ever seen this show and would love to have the whole family enjoy it.
I’ve never gone. And, I love legs. Two good reasons!
Nothing says Christmas like seeing The Christmas Show and going for a skate at Rockerfeller Center.
Radio City is such a beautiful and iconic place to see a show.
I went as a child once and I loved it. I would love to share this with my family ans a friend.
All I can say is ditto to all of the above. Went as a child and the memory has never faded. Once took the backstage tour. The hydraulics are an incredible piece of engineering!
We just received custody of our grand daughter after a long and painful battle and would love to brighten up her holidays (and ours) with something special. Can’t think of a better way to help us heal then kicking it up with the world famous Rockettes!!!!

Because the Rockettes have great legs!
I have never been to Radio City and would love to take my daughters. Plus, they saw the Rockettes on this past season of Project Runway and now can’t stop taking about them! This would be a great surprise and make such a wonderful memory. Thanks!
I have always wanted to take the children to see the show but haven’t yet gone. It would be a fantastic family outing.
My daughter wants to be a Rockette someday and how much fun would it be to take her to the show!
I do miss going to Radio City, as we did every year while living in Manhattan. My son made Christmas Spectacular history (at age 4) when he didn’t understand the reference to Baby Jesus. He thought that they said “Baby Cheeses,” and yelled out, “I love baby cheeses! American cheeses! Swiss cheeses! (We carried Baby Bonbel with us everywhere) Due to the wonderful acoustics, his comment was heard by the Rockettes on stage, and they laughed so hard, the show was delayed for a few minutes. So, please help us make history there once again.
My parents made it a tradition to take my daughter every year when she was a little girl. Then my dad lost his job and they were never able to return since. Now that she is grown (just turned 18) and has a little sister that has yet to see the Rockettes live, it would be an awesome opportunity for all four of them to experience the show together, one last time before she ventures out on her own… wahhhh!
My husband, 2 daughters and I are nuts about the holidays and love the excitement in NYC in December. None of us have ever seen the Radio City Christmas show. My tap dancing kids are now the perfect age to enjoy it. Plus, the tickets would be a perfect holiday surprise for my husband’s birthday in early December.
I have fond memories of seeing the show as a child. I have never been able to take my own family to see it and with the holiday season being my favorite time of the year, it would be a joy to be able to share the experience with them.
The rockets rock!

This is an awesome family holiday time out
My office looks out over Radio City. I see the crowd lining up for the show every season and would love to be going inside with them!
We have always wanted to go to this show live! My great aunt was a broadway dancer (eons ago!) and always encouraged me to take my kids to the arts but my youngest one had such bad sensory issues that we could not hope to sit through an event with lights and music. We purchased the Rockettes DVD Christmas Spectacular and watched at home instead! This year my son is better able to cope and is more curious. We just entered the “Design a Rockettes Costume” facebook content under my name but my 9 year old budding fashionista did the design work. We didn’t win but it got the kids in the spirit and it would be great to be able to take them to the show…even if the rockettes are not wearing our design this year!
I would love to go with my grandchildren.
I would love to take my son to see this wonderful show!
My son’s birthday in in December and having a birthday and a major holiday in one month is taxing. I would like to start a family tradition of kicking off the Holiday season by going to see the Rockettes. Also, although I have two boys I think this is a perfect why to introduce them to theater.
This was the ONE show to which my parents would faithfully commit every year! I would love to share that with my girls.
I havre always wanted to see this show but in more than 40 yrs in the NY area I have never made it. My girls would love it!
What a wonderful giveaway! I used to go when I was a little girl in the days you got a movie and the Christmas Spectacular! I would love to go with my family, especially since my son has never seen the show and I am sure, since he’ll be off to college in less than two years, it would be a fantastic family memory maker!
There is nothing like Christmas in NYC!!! 85 years of Rockettes!!! Now that my son is 3, I think his eyes would light up if he were to marvel at the lights, the sights, and the beautiful Rockettes that make the show unbelievable!!! I would also like to take Great Grams and Mom. I have been before, but Great Grams is 88 and has never seen the show. Neither has my mom, who is 63. What a delight if we could have 4 generations at the show!
I would love to be able to take my 10 year old daughter to Radio City to see the Rockettes! She would adore the costumes and would be thrilled with the live performance. During the holidays it is so hard to get the extra money together for entertainment like this.
Would be such fun to take my son. We love the City at holiday time and this would be such a treat.
I became a senior citizen this year and have never seen the show. I’d love to finally see it!
